Sorry about the long wait for an update, life's been crazy lately. Anyway, I don't own Twilight, only the characters I create like Ella.

We're off to see the wizard

Ella's POV

Renata wanted to run to my house and I happily agreed. I noticed she kept close to me, her face showed fear and worry. Jane said she was a shield and could protect me against attacks, but this girl didn't look like she could hurt a fly.

"Renata?" I asked quietly, knowing she could hear. She looked at me and nodded.

"Where are we going?" I asked her, she knew what I meant, where were we going to go after the airport.

"Italy." She stated simply in a soft voice. I nodded and looked forward, we were at my house. My mother's car wasn't in the drive-way so I didn't have to worry about her seeing me leave.

I grabbed my key and walked into the house. Renata closed the door silently behind me.

"This is nice." She stated from behind me, I gave a small nod. Yes it was nice, and I was about to leave it behind for who knows how long. First things' first, I walked over to the desk and pulled out a paper and a pen.

Mom

I'm with some new friends, I don't know how long I'll be gone. Call me on my cell if you want to.

Love Ella

I taped the note onto the computer so she was sure to see it when she came home. As Renata walked through the house she seemed to enjoy herself. Every now and again she would touch a picture or painting and her face would look calm. I smiled while I packed my things, she watched me the entire time.

I realized I was graceful and quicker since I became a….shape-shifter. Soon enough I was packed and ready to go. I couldn't help but wonder who they were going to send with me. Leah was probably furious with me, and I don't think Sam would risk sending her with me. Even if he imprinted on Emily, there was always going to be a special spot in his heart for her. Collin would try to go off with Kayla and ignore the fact that I even exist. It was obvious that he didn't want an imprint. Embry, he acted like a brother, but he had his own imprint to worry about.

"We must leave now." Renata said from beside me. I quickly gathered my bags and walked out the door, Renata closed and locked it behind me. I just realized there was a car in the drive way, a silver BMW. I was about to ask her why it was in my drive-way but she gracefully walked to the driver's side and got into the car. I did the same after putting my things into the open trunk.

We drove in silence, once we arrived I noticed Renata's face turned back into a mask of fear. I gently touched her arm and she seemed to relax slightly, she feared her coven.

"Come, Jane is waiting with your escort." She said in a strained tone. I nodded and walked into the airport. I could smell everything the second I walked through the door. I could smell Jane and her guard, that didn't surprise me. What did was the fact that there was more than one pack member here. I began walking faster and came out in a waiting room where they all were. Jane and the members of the guard were motionless staring at me. Jane gave a small smile while some of the others hissed. But with one look from Jane they were silenced.

They were sitting in the chairs farthest from the Volturi Guard. Embry was looking at me while Collin was looking at his phone, texting someone. It wasn't hard to guess who. I looked back over at Jane,

"What are they both doing here?" I asked her. She smiled at me, that was the reaction she wanted from me.

"Your….leader wanted to send the both of them. We agreed in order to avoid conflict." She stated simply, I nodded in return. Embry stood up and stretched out,

"Finally!" he yelled, even though everyone in this room could hear him perfectly even if he whispered. "I was growing a beard! What took so long?" he asked, I rolled my eyes.

"It's time to board the plane." Jane said with authority. I glanced at her, thanks I mouthed. She smiled, any time.

"Time to go." Renata stated from beside me. I slowly walked out the door, reluctant to leave my mother. She didn't need two people to walk out on her, and it was only a matter of time before she discovered I wasn't with friends, at least in this country.
